| Summary |
Program #866: "The Second World. Many observers feel that a preoccupation with the war on terror has resulted in a more unilateral approach to American foreign policy. These experts predict that to regain the full expression of its global power that [the] United States will have to re engage the world. Author Parag Khanna argues that such re engagement will confront the U.S. with a vastly different world order. In the world of the 21st century there are three empires in Khanna's view: America, the European Union and China."--Track Sheet. |

Program #867: "Capturing the Future: American Foreign Policy in the 21st Century. In a highly distinguished 26 year career Nicholas Burns held many of the most important postings in American diplomacy. From that vantage point he foresees a need for a newly assertive American foreign policy, rooted in traditional values and oriented to a multicultural world. He is also convinced that only a cohesive and prosperous domestic society can provide the confident energy the country will need to secure its international goals."--Track Sheet. |

Commentary #331: " Whoever is President, An Administration Needs Oversight. With the White House and Congress soon to be controlled by the same party, there's a chance that Congress will be inclined to go easy on the Obama administration. Former Congressman Lee Hamilton says this would be a mistake, and that 'Whoever Is President, An Administration Needs Oversight'."--Track Sheet. |

Commentary #331 [i.e. #332] : "The Presidential Transition. The transition is a delicate, even crucial, point in any administration, says former Congressman Lee Hamilton. Today's transition is taking place in a particularly tough environment."--Track Sheet. |
